NSTRUCTIONS:  Students must Create a Cancer Registry Accession Worksheet using the example provided.  Students will prepare an accession register using the list of patients and attached worksheet by assigning numbers in the correct order.  Save your responses in a Word document, attach file and upload to the dropbox

Accession Number Definition: A nine-digit number is used to identify the year in which the patient was first seen at the reporting facility for the diagnosis and/or treatment of cancer. The first four numbers specify the year, and the last five numbers are the numeric order in which the patient was entered into the registry database.

Example

Patient Jones was first seen in April  9, 2014, she was entered into the registry database under the number 07139.  Patient Perez was first seen April 13, 2016, he was entered  into the registry database under the  number 07164.  Following the accession number definition, the accession numbers would be 201407139 for patient Jones and 201607164 for patient Perez.  Next place them in the correct order using the straight numerical filing system.

1.   201407139

2.  201607164
